Sometimes plans have a way of taking on a life of their own. We just gotta hang on. Also, coffee.

Forgotten Realms is My Philosophy…Apparently.
Did I think I would pull meta concepts out of my early teen fantasy binging? No. Did I? Oh, yes.
A Quick Check-In
There's been...a lot going on as of late. I was at an event this past weekend and people were asking me if I was still writing on my blog. My answer was. "Of Course!" I have a blog post drafted on a completely ridiculous trip to Canada, I have two articles coming up on tournaments …
Competition: Why?
This past Sunday was the Southern WI Open. It's an event I've been going to since I was at 15, if not younger and it's always been a fun tournament and a place where I get to see friends from all over the state. This year was no different. It was also my first event …
Looking in the Rearview Mirror
Sometimes when I'm at something of a loss for words on what to write I look back through my photos in my phone and see what I thought was funny/cool/interesting enough to take a picture of at the time. For the last two months, it's been a bit of my wife, a whole lot of …

Match Week = Chaos (But Good Chaos)
In the last two weeks, there have been some huge changes. In fact, "huge" doesn't quite encapsulate the scope of events going on. "Gargantuan" might be better. Or even "All Encompassing" or possibly "Earth Moving" might be more appropriate. But we'll settle for "huge." Rewind to St. Patty's day. In the med school world, this year …
AKA Warrior Cup: Comraderie and Competition
This past weekend I was at the AKA Warrior Cup in Chicago. There will be a post going up in SportMartialArts.com about it pretty soon (I gotta write it). The short of it is it was as grand and wonderful a tournament as everyone had hoped. Some of the best competitors in the world showed …

So, a thing happened…
I start writing classes next week, I have a tournament the week after, and then everything starts spinning faster and crazier, and even better. But, before all of that, there was something truly exciting that happened this past weekend. I GOT MYSELF MARRIED!! And it was completely spectacular. For all the craziness it took to …
